THE 1950 AGAWASIE PAGE 7 ...Center of Recreational Activities at Science The school sup ply store, our of the Huh’s many features, is an important part of school operations. Here students may Ituy most of their necessities from school supplies to llenny’s little side line, monoyramed shirts. In the picture at the right. Ifenny is putting forth his best sales talk to Her file aid. Dorothy Schneder and Aeis ftovfl. Aamiring Henny's sales technique is assistant Hub manager ICIeanor llurgett. The facilities of the Hub and the school supply store are operated jn a self-supporting, non-profit basis. The price of books and. supplies are kept as near to actual cost as possible and any profits are used for improvements in Huh facilities. One unusual feature of the school supply store is the large number of tools it handles for use in the various trades departments. The Wildcat room of the Hub a has many functions. During the day its tables are alternately used for eating and recreation and in the evening the room becomes a meeting place for many campus organisations. Typical of its evening function is a meeting of the Student Wires Club. The He peat room is. Miss Schulz’s pride and joy. This room is designed to provide a guiet an:! convenient place ichere vocal groups and the band may hold practice sessions. The broadcast club also uses the He peat room for their weekly Wahpetou Science On The Air” broadcasts over KHMW. In the picture at the tower right the band gives out with some fast notes during one of the weekly broadcasts. Lawrence Yeilenheimer gives out with a look of satisfaction as he illustrates one of the reasons why the Campus Hub is the Campus •W- hub.

PAGE 6 THE 19S0 AGAWASIE Campus Hub... There’s a .standard procedure for locating: any student on campus. First you go to a low white build ing directly across the campus oval from Burch Hall and if. by some unusual coincidence, he or she doesn't happen to be there you check with the people that are there. This routine is a Rood example of the logic with which the building was named the Campus-Hub. Among the many facilities of the most popular buildinR on the campus are its snack bar: the school supply store; recreation rooms with facilities for parties, club meetings and other functions: a music room used for band and vocal group practice sessions and weekly broadcasts, and such miscellaneous facilities as the campus post office. .1 took of iccIconic is one of -Gillie out standing features of the Cam pus Hub.

THE 1950 AGAWASIE PACK 8 SSS Family Schaff Family living quarters at Wah-peton Science are an important post war campus development. Both apartments and trailers are available on campus and in heavy demand. One of the lucky families is that of Michael Schaff. first year electrical student. These friendly folk hail from a farm near Glen Ullin. Michael's day is taken up with his school work, while Mrs. Schaff keeps plenty busy taking care of two future Science students. David. 2. and Bichard. 1. and doing the housework. Then after a busy day the Schaflfs engage in their favorite pastime—just relaxing and playing with the boys. Campus life for the married students isn't much different than that of single boys. The men and their wives frequently take in the Here the Michael SchafT 4kt-famihj spend a quiet evening at home, the climax to a busy day at school for father Mike. A The trailers are equipped with a kitchenette where Mrs. Schaff pours a good hot cup of coffee. The kitchenette is cleverly arranged, making meal preparation in a limited space possible. Laundry facilities are avail- ▲ able in a special building equip- pe:l icith tubs and washing machines ready for use. Young David looks on with curious eyes as his mother does the week's wash. school activities (providing baby sitters are willing and able). The wives are organized into a Student Wives club that has regular meetings. Young David finds plenty of playmates in the trailer camp and in the closeby apartments, and the campus has many interesting corners of an adventurous lad to investigate. The families in the camp get along like one big family for not only are their living circumstances similar but the fathers are engaged in the same occupation. Many evenings are spent comparing notes. There's always confusion on the campus between Mike Schaff and Family and Agawasie editor Mike Schaff. They’re cousins and both hail from Glen Ullin. but editor Mike swears that he doesn't have a family and familynmn Mike swears he's no editor. David bids a last minute goodbye to his dad. who’s off to school. Meanwhile Mrs. Schaff and liich-ard wave goodbye from the trailer door.
